He is a Californian, a former BCF employee, and is in charge of his department's current effort to evaluate the extent of the Quinnat (chinook) salmon resource on South Island. These fish were planted in New Zealand near the turn of the century from eggs of Sacramento River (California) chinook stock. These fish have survived in a number of streams and rivers of the southeastern, southern, and southwestern coasts of South

These fish have survived in a number of streams and rivers of the southeastern, southern, and southwestern coasts of South Island. The government has built a fish trap on the GlenarLffe tributary of the Rakaia River to evaluate the extent of the incoming and outgoing migrations. At present, virtually nothing is known of the populations of Quinnat salmon in New Zealand streams. The Glenariffe trap is located in the foothills of the eastern slopes of the Southern Alps, about 80 miles from Christchurch, South Figs. 2A G 2B - BCF geochemistry on OSS Oceanographer Fig. 3 - Salmon trap in Rakaia River, South Island, New Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original United States.
